The topside controls aren't fused so the fuses wont be the cause.

It can only be either the PCB, the topside controls, or a bad connection at fault. Check that they are plugged in correctly, make sure that the PCB is configured correctly for your topside controls.

It's rare for both the main and auxilary topside controls to fail. You can try plugging in another main topside control without fully installing it... at least you can then return it (ask whether or not return are accepted, I don't personally accept any returns if parts are specially ordered) if it doesn't cure the problem.

Ian.

Balboa hot tub.. how to turn up the HEAT / TEMP , no owners manual, and does anyone know where I can get one?
You do not have a Balboa Hot Tub. That is the company that made the control panel for it. Id venture to guess it's either a Hawkeye, Barefoot or Master spa if it came with no owners manual. To turn up the heat simply press the Red "up" arrow on the digital control pad. Check out the link below. It's a quick reference guide to what I'm guessing is your top side control.

Hot tub wont come on
What do you mean "Jump it"?
Check with a meter, ACROSS both hot wires to get a reading of 220-240 volts. do not test across 1 hot and the meter lead on ground! You probably are not getting proper voltage to the hot tub. Or you may have a burned system fuse normally 20-25-or 30 amp fuse, which is found within the control box of the spa.

Heat in my 1994 Mercury Grand marquis stopped working abruptley. What should I be checking for? Core not clogged or leaking.
sudden failures are usually the blend door actuator. Unfortunately, you have to remove the dash to get the actuator out. It sits on top of the heater box in the second picture below. I have pasted the procedure below from autozone.com. Please see my tip at http://www.fixya.com/cars/r6235876-no_heat_fan_blowing_cold_air . If you get stuck, please get back to me, and thanks for using FixYa.

My hot tub still trips the breaker,and i replaced
Check the heater. The heater is the most likely cause of tripping electric.

If you're not sure what you're doing, please contact someone who does. Electricity isn't something that should be played around with especially when in close proximity to water.

My hot tub still trips the breaker,and i replaced it with a new gfci. What other things can i ck.
If your hot tub is pulling more amps than amps sent your breaker box, you'll keep tripping the breaker. Check the rating on the hot tub and compare that to the breaker rating. You may need to uograde the wireing. Make sure the wire gauge is up to code.

Reactivating Spa after idle. refilled, got a DR code. system cycled, blower functioned, and then system stalled with 1888 error code. Found pump had frozen up. Replaced it. No change.
